Easy Broiled Miso-Marinated Black Cod
You can never have too many main course recipes, so give Easy Broiled Miso-Marinated Black Cod Head to the store and pick up cod filets, vegetable oil, miso paste, and a few other things to make it today. To use up the vegetable oil you could follow this main course with the Blueberry Coffee Cake #SundaySupper as a dessert. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes approximately 30 minutes.
Instructions
Whisk together miso, sake, mirin, soy sauce, oil, and sugar. Rub mixture over every surface of black filets.
Transfer to a plastic zipper lock bag or sealable container. Proceed immediately to next step, or for best results, marinate for about 30 minutes or up to two days.
Adjust broiler rack to 4 inches from heat source and preheat broiler or toaster oven broiler to high. Cover a small broiler pan with aluminum foil.
Place black cod filets skin side-down on pan. Broil until top surface is well charred and a thin skewer inserted into black cod shows no resistance at all when piercing through layers of flesh, about 10 minutes. If any areas of fish threaten to burn, shield with small pieces of aluminum foil.
When fish is cooked, carefully remove pin bones with a pair of tweezers (there should be no resistence), and serve immediately.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Cod. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Ziobaffan Organic Pinot Grigio with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.
